Now you know what is the difference between Hero and normal guy...Heroes have a big responsibility to protect every people althought it will cost their lives, heroes aren't run away because they're scared, but they'll always stand up for the right thing. Don't care if they're phsically strong or not but they sure have a strong heart...

Oh god no, don't believe in everything the media or the interweb say, a lot of the time is just BS they made up and if that's really the case then it just sounds like a bad excuse to me.

I mean really, the animators are having issues because the freaking landlord is turning the power off on purpose... really? come on now...

As usual, the protagonist always arrive late. But man! I can't wait for the next episode!

She got him back. If you understand the characters well enough, you'd know she did!

The animation is horrendous at this point. Battles don't carry any weight. Weird close-ups make everything look weird. Body proportions are not in balance. And the overall lack of detail indicates this is rushed horseshit.

The few last minutes were the only worthy parts of this episode sadly. It had incredibly wack sounds and the directing is so bland and predictable it's painful. Also, they never really animate proper movements of action. It's just either a still image with a bunch of sounds in it or a looped, 4 frame movement of the characters.

Honestly, without Saitama this show would be worse than your average action show. Thank god Saitama is in it.

Whatever the case, I'm just glad this adaptation follows the manga very faithfully. It is the only silver lining to this trainwreck of a series. Animation-wise, this has got to be the most balanced episode albeit the weird still drawings, but again, considering the notorious record of JCS on murdering good titles, this is seriously commendable. Hope they can keep it up for the future episodes.

Oh god, that was so awful. This show is just filled with characters nobody could care, some dialogues from the villians were stupid and so were some of the heroes' actions. The plot is just messy (and so was the nonsensical tournament's questionable system... if there was any...). Saitama coming to save Suiryu, it was Dragon Ball levels of predictability. It's really frustrating, even if I thought the first season was mediocre, but this season is way worse that it makes S1 look decent/good. I doubt the manga is better, but I still hope this season's last episodes will be decent, hopefully! At least the animation and the art were nice in this horrendous episode.

I said last episode that Suiryu pissed me off but in this episode, I felt sorry for the motherfucker. He thought he was going to pork that cutie with the big tits but instead a monster with big pecs stomped all over him.

I'm excited to see Saitama dominate in the next episode. Suiryu could never.

In terms of animation this was one of the more stable episodes.

The previous episode were pretty bad with suiryu having weird proportion (head too small for the body) and static animation.

But I'm satisfied about the over all fight animation.

Kinda weird though that this episode was better animated than the Saitama fight.

If all the episodes were animated like this and didn't skip manga stuff this whole season would have the shitstorm it has now.



your post seriously confuses me- what saitama fight scene? In any event of saitama fighting, and any other fighting were quite faulty. the only good (and I do mean great fight that reminded me of fights in season 1 that hooked viewers) was the hero hunter vs tank top and company. overall season 2 is trash.


Ah sorry, I meant Saitama vs Suiryu episode ''fight'' was worse animated than Suiryu the monsters. While you would think Saitama vs Suiryu would be more important.

There was a shot of the announcer guy running away to safety with her. I think it was when Snek and Max reappeared in their Hero Gear, though I could be wrong.

I feel that what's wrong with this season is also what was wrong with the last two seasons of Berserk: the team adapting it doesn't really know what they're doing, so they've fallen back on copying the manga word for word, panel for panel. Books and TV are two very different mediums; what works for one doesn't necessarily work for the other, but they didn't change the source material to account for that. Add in the cheap animation and comical sound effects, and it's just one big facepalm from beginning to end.

It’s in no way better and is definitely a step down in quality in every sense of the term but that doesn’t make it bad because it’s not God tier. Do I wish they put more into it? Hell yeah. Am I satisfied with what I got compared to season 1? No. That still doesn’t mean it’s bad.

Art got much better than other episodes, with some cool monster designs. Animation maybe ok if they remove that blur ghosting.
Lol those crows didn't they appear in another seasonal?
Quite liked the Suiryu development & actually empathize with a character that started out vain & just wants an easy life.
Well Saitama took awhile.

You are right when you say that is not bad but it isn't good either, it's mediocre, it's on that thin line between bad or good.

For a 12 episode anime (I bet this will only have 12 episodes) the animation is extremely lazy specially in the fight scenes with all that blurry shaky camera which only purpose is to hide the bad animation and this type of crap should not be acceptable for short animes like this one and people should complain about it, not praise it. This type of crap should only happen in long animes like Naruto, One Piece, Bleach, Dragon Ball or whatever but for a 12 episodes anime this is not acceptable.

That's not all, my other complaint goes to the mediocre directing, sound effects and soundtrack but you already mentioned that when you said that this is a step down in every sense. I guess my biggest issue so far is the blurry shaky camera, that's just way too lazy.

This was a good ep mainly cause of the content, Suiryu got his ass handed hard, Saitama to the rescue at the end was hype.
Funny how I felt more impact reading the manga than how the anime made me feel, while there were some very few decent cuts, majority of the fight had no impact at all, Suiryuu's bones cracking didn't feel like shit at all.
The girl he was asking out on a date tho was hot.
I think its about time I drop this now, no point continuing the anime when the manga makes me enjoy the series more, the anime is just ruining my experience of pre-established stuffs.
Thus with my final comment for OPM S2, I bid you all farewell fellow fans.

I'd say watch the next episode atleast, since according to some sources, a certain animator is involved, so there's some looking forward to it. It's Saitama's fight maybe that's why.

Oh.. guess I'll give it one more go, I'm not expecting something crazy but something like Tank top master V Garou would be more than enough.

I binge watched the entire season up to this episode yesterday. Holy shit everything looks like shit! The characters and storyboard must had been drawn with microsoft paint, this is the only possible explanation. Just stacked up a couple of those in a powerpoint and you got a fight scene according to J.C.Staff standards.

I get that, I'm not saying that season 2 is bad, I'm saying that is mediocre and that people should complain about the shortcuts they are taking like doing the blurry shaky camera in the fight scenes, this is extremely lazy and people shouldn't praise this type of crap. If you praise it then they will keep doing that same shit over and over again.

And yeah, unfortunately we might not get something close to season 1 which was amazing and I was expecting too much out of season 2 so it was my fault but that doesn't mean that I should be happy about the lazy directing, sound effects and music they are providing us with, it's a mediocre season 2, yes they are trying their best but it's still mediocre and people should not praise mediocrity.

If they do a half-assed job then I rather not have a season 2 like they are doing currently, this will only hurt the franchise more exactly like what happened with Berserk 2016/2017.

yeah their practices like shaking camera might be annoying but i mean what they could possibly do then if they don't know what to do they're like the animators of Aot although they have very less of them but i understand what you mean but you can't really blame they might were afraid especially working in rush hours doesn't helping too also i didn't say you should praise them for their mediocre work at least don't be harsh on them because its not really their fault for working on that tight time but let's see what they could do on the next important episodes because i think the animators who worked on episode 3 and 4 might work on those for sure before we can say that this a mediocre season

Wow Suiryu's voice actor is really versatile in this episode, I thought he can only voice a cool-guy type. And it's just not a sudden change, it's transition change that his voice lose more and more confidence each time he's in worse situation.


Dude! My thoughts exactly.

I think Saitama is getting ignored too hard this season. It doesn't feel like one punch man anymore. The last minute or so was good tho.


Agreed.

Ngl, there's always been an element of Saitama not being around till the very end and focusing on the other characters because we know that as soon as Saitama arrives the situation is gonna be cleared up. This is a big element of the comedy we've learnt to love from it and gives us a chance to learn about other characters....

BUT...

these characters are just boring as hell... I couldn't care about them at all tbh because MOST of them are just so bland and boring... Compare it to the Sea King episodes. We learnt so much about these characters who became staples of that season and there was quite a few. This season I can't even remember names or faces that's how unforgettable they are. Saitama being unpresent is a running theme but his disappearance has always been carried by other interesting characters. These are not interesting characters.

If I had gone in this season not knowing this was One Punch Man I wouldn't of thought Saitama was meant to be the main character tbh.

Meh the episode was annoying,it was just another filler for useless character that only manga readers care about. From reading their posts,it seems that it will become just another cliche shounen trash. From the looks of things season 3 will be a hard skip. The first anime was great because of how op the main character was and ended up as comedy. Now it takes too seriously,i only once laughed during the last 8 episodes. The studio should have just cut all that garbage filler and put it in one episode.


Tbh I dont even know if this was in the manga. Then again I've only read the original web toon so that might be main reason why but even so I get the feeling the manga was 100x better even with this arc.
